Her Return, His Regret by Natie

At the Davis & Co. Company.

Lora had a day when she received private consultations from VIP clients who wanted their jewelry designed by her.

Hannah walked into the office and announced, "Miss Davis, the last VIP client has arrived."

Lora looked up and nodded, "Send them in."

Lora's eyes widened slightly when she saw who it was.

The client was none other than, Diane Kingsley, Ryan's sister.

Lora masked her surprise with a professional smile, her stomach knotting with nerves. Why was Diane here? Did Ryan send her?
